2.4 Ammunition

WARNING Never use ammunition not specifically designated for use in your weapon.

Failure to use the specific cartridge intended for use in the CREED pistol

may cause the pistol to jam, fail to fire or even generate excessive gas

pressure which can damage or destroy the pistol, cause personal injury,

death or property damage.

Locate the cartridge designation marked on the pistol.

This information indicates the ammunition specifically

intended for use in the pistol (see 2.4 Fig. 1).

2.4 Fig. 1

Use only ammunition corresponding to the caliber of the weapon and which conforms to the

provisions of C.I.P. or SAAMI.

Check your ammunition before shooting it. Use ammunition in prime condition.

A firearm and ammunition are a system and must work together. Their performance is

closely related.

Different combinations of bullet velocity, bullet weight and firearm weight can have major

impact on felt recoil; high felt recoil can be uncomfortable to some shooters.

For example:

• Gun Weight: lower gun weight increases felt recoil.

• Bullet Weight: higher bullet weight increases felt recoil.

• Bullet Velocity: higher bullet velocity increases felt recoil.

To adjust yourself to higher levels of felt recoil, consider the following:

• Use a firm two-hand hold on the grip when firing.

• Always begin your shooting experience with the lowest bullet velocity and lowest bullet

weight available for your firearm.

• Ask your firearm dealer to suggest the lowest power, lowest velocity, lightest bullet weight

for your firearm.
